“This is a MaxiKorg DV 800 synth,circa 1976 that belonged to my Dad . It lights up and makes sounds but past that I cannot tell you anything. All of the keys work and one was glued back together some years back. It may need a good cleaning on the inside as for the pots and slides as they tend to attract dust over 41 years.” Link

” For sale is one Korg MaxiKorg analog synth. These are super rare, and I have never seen one in as nice of shape as this. The 800DV is basically two 700s MiniKorgs in one chassis with a duo phonic keyboard like the ARP Odyssey. Each “voice” has its own dedicated row of functions: And amazing band pass filter that just hits resonance, envelope, modulation section (vibrato, portamento, bend) a dedicated ring modulator, two oscillators, and a really deep “repeat” section, that allows you to retrigger each voice either independently or together. You can also send each voice to an external effect as they each have their own output. I love this synth, but I am making room in the studio for other beasts.

I am including a fully built, uninstalled CV/Gate control PCB from Non Linear Circuits. This, should you choose to install it, will give you full CV control of each voice, and also allow for cv/gate output as well. These boards are also rare, and this one is professionally assembled and ready for installation.” Link

“In great working order – It is missing 3 switches that can be seen in pictures 5 & 6. The switches are still in working order but difficult to use at times. If required I could get them replaced buy a professional.” Link

“one of the few monophonic synths to equal a mini moog or arp 2600 for fire power and cutting sounds
But the standout feature is the duophonic capability , two complete synthesizers on one unit .
Can be easily converted to accept cv/ gate if you looking for computer control
I prefer to play it through the keyboard
Very expressive,” Link

“Up for sale is a Vintage 1970’s UNIVOX MAXIKORG K-3 KORG DV800 Synthesizer. Unit is in good cosmetic condition showing some marks of use here and there. There is a missing paint spot just in between the volume faders (see picture). Has been fully inspected and tested by our pro tech and it’s in perfect playing condition. All knobs, faders and keys are working just fine. Also have all its original parts, no mods. Very hard to find on the market these days. Awesome sounding synth and great collectable piece of gear! Serial number: 0384 (1973-1975)” Link

“Korg 800Dv or univox maxi korg ( both are same unit as this was licensed to univox for production in USA
This analog synthesiser was produced in 1975 it was the first genuine duo-phonic synthesiser produced
It has separate controls for each voice ( upper and lower)
These are quite rare in Australia and I only know of only 2 others in the country both of which I have owned, ( I operate the Facebook group dedicated to this rare model of korg)

(I am Selling this rare synth as I have currently have 3 units)

The sound of these has to be heard to be believed
This is probably the only mono synth that can take it up to the minimoog for 12 rounds then deliver the knockout blow with ear shattering distorted ring modulation , and still have a voice to spare,” Link

“FOR SALE IS ONE KORG “MAXI-KORG” 800-DV TWO VOICE SYNTHESIZER. FULLY PROFESSIONALLY TUNED & REFURBISHED. ALL ELECTROLYTIC CAPS
REPLACED, FULLY RECALIBRATED AND TUNED. THIS UNIT SOUNDS INCREDIBLE. I CAN BUILD CUSTOM SIDE PANELS FOR IT FOR A FEE, COMES WITH THE STOCK ONES. THERE ARE A FEW SCRATCHES ON THE WOOD. SOME OF THE PAINT ON THE FACEPLATE IS WORN, AS HAPPENS TO ALL OF THESE. IT IS MISSING ONE SLIDER CAP, SHOULD NOT BE TOO HARD TO FIND. EVERYTHING WORKS AMAZINGLY WELL AFTER THE REFURBISHMENT.” Link

“its a good, sturdy instrument, that REALLY sounds buzzy and analog but can also sound delicate. from the dawn of availability of synthesizer for the regular person. it has a lot of very odd features and has a strong low end in a mix.

“At auction is the Korg (branded as Univox) 800DV Maxi-Korg. This is a vintage monophonic/duophonic analog synthesizer circa 1975. Everything seems to function as it should, as I have some experience using synthesizers. There are two toggle switches in which the toggle has broken off, but the switch part is still there and still functions the way it is supposed to. Also, two toggle switchcaps are missing, but the switches are easily switched and function as they should. Three other knobs are not original stock knobs. All of the keys work as they are supposed to. From the photos, you can see that the synthesizer has some normal scratches on the wood and metal. This machine is amazing in that it is actually two blendable Korg 770 synthesizers, one stacked on top of the other, in the same synthesizer. In this way, it is duophonic. This can create some very interesting sounds to say the least. I hate to let this rare beast go, but other financial priorities need to be addressed.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.

“For sale here is the Korg Maxikorg/DV800. This legendary duophonic analogue synthesizer is in excellent cosmetical and mechanical/electronic condition!! It has a few scratches on the wooden panels (which will be repainted) but the panel is almost immaculate. It only has a small ding which is almost invisible. It has all the original knobs and sliders (those two unoriginal vcf sliders on the pictures are replaced by original ones!!), and all the lines and other descriptions are still there. Mechanically and electronically it is in superb condition!! It has been fully serviced by Marc Marc Amsterdam who has thirty years experience with servicing analogue gear and services all my analogue synthesizers before I offer them for sale. I can easily say he is a Maxikorg specialist because he serviced and recapped more than a dozen Maxikorgs. Marc Marc cleaned/treated all pots, faders, key contacts, inputs, outputs, and he did a full recap (tantalic capacitators). The Maxikorg has also been calibrated which is really a must. The sample&hold of this Maxikorg is amazingly stable. Also it has an very goog tracking of the VCO’s. The high and low tones stay in tune almost infinite. This Maxikorg can be used professionally with confidence for a long time!! For more info on the service check the certificate next to the pictures. Included are a printed manual and the original certificate of the service. It works on 220 V” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.
